What wrong with The Rifleman, other than Mark being an annoying punk?

My favorites I return to: a dark song (authentic occult minimalism horror), fallen (Denzel), godfather saga, Goodfellas, the thing (Kurt Russell), dirty work (underrated norm MacDonald comedy)

I like Preston Sturges my glowing friend. Put it in my file.
